A stone from the outside was found to have broken the window of the train.
According to local media such as New Swab, Widia (30), a woman on a train from Yokyakarta to Surabaya, Indonesia, was suddenly smashed by a side window while reading a book on the night of the 6th (local time).
She explained the situation at the time, "'As the window broke, fragments of glass flew into the hair, face, and clothing.'"
She then moved to the rear compartment under the guidance of the train crew and had to remove every fragment from the scene.
A small piece of glass stuck inside her eye caused her to get off at the next station and receive first aid.
Fortunately, there is no problem with vision, but until now, the pain in the head remains.
Indonesia's state rail operator KAI (Keeta Pi Indonesia) issued a public apology shortly after the accident and said it would fully support her treatment.
The accident was reported to have been broken by stones thrown from the outside. A stone was found around the seat where she sat.
Railway operator KAI said "Throwing stones at trains is a homicide. I hope this will never happen again."
KAI said it is currently tracking down the culprit and will hand it over to the police as soon as it is identified.
"I was lucky enough to be injured to this extent," Mr. Widia said on social media, adding that "Please, please don't throw any more stones at the train.'
